Rainwater Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 To me the Going To California boot, or as some call it Going To California With Led Zeppelin, showcases Jimmy at his very best. This show also shows how great the band's acoustic sets could be. The best recording ever of That's The Way is on this show and Going To California is breath taking. This is just my opinion. What's yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmtomh Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Are you referring to the 09 14 1971 Berkeley show? If so, it is indeed one of the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to push the envelope with you a little more - but I am not exaggerating or pulling your leg here - when I say that the show still makes me want to stand up and clap after all of these years.

chillumpuffer Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 One of the best shows to get but frustratingly it is incomplete. Cracking Whole Lotta Love. One of the first boots I ever heard and the Vinyl source is generally used. Pity the previous night is not in this quality as it as just as good but unlike the 14th it is complete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) If it was complete, this show's WLL would be the absolute top of my list. Even incomplete, it rates very highly. Great, great show for sure! Edited August 11, 2016 by Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dullarmor Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I wouldn't say this recording captures Jimmy Page at its finest, but it features an excellent 'Going to California'. It's my favorite live version of that song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amstel Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Is this show from the now defunct Swingin' Pig label? I have one copy of this show, but not in SB form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never been available in soundboard. Just the excellent incomplete audience tape...which was lost (thrown in the ocean) and all succeeding versions were sourced from available vinyl copies. The cleaner the better. Edited October 22, 2016 by Strider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I have bought two versions in vinyl over the years. The first was the classic TMOQ in 1973. Then in 1982 I picked this Titanic Records version up in a shop in Killeen, Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a coloured vinyl rubber stamped pastel sleeve TMQ any day. I've had many black wax boots but the TMQs have a magic other boots don't have. Walking down the road with a TMQ under the arm, those were the days.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TMQ sounded better and closer to the source, whereas the Titanic sounded like a copy of a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
